Title: Distributing device for thick substances, especially concrete
Inventor: SCHWING FRIEDRICH
IPC: E04G21/04
Filed: 2001-10-10
Abstract: In a distribution device intended in particular for concrete distribution, a scissor-like assembly of conveying-conduit elements is provided to ensure lengthwise adjustment of the concrete-conveying conduit to a telescopic distribution-boom section which supports the concrete-conveying conduit. The scissor assembly is designed such that the articulation points of the conveying-conduit elements move past each other while the telescope is being extended or retracted from one end position to the other, and alternately assume transposed positions when the telescope is fully retracted or fully extended. The conveying-conduit elements will always assume an extended position, either against the direction of concrete conveyance or in the direction of concrete conveyance, when the telescope is either fully retracted or fully extended.
Patent HK-1044070-A1 (HK)
Title: Electrostatic fluid accelerator
Inventor: IGOR A KRICHTAFOVITCH
IPC: H01T23/00
Filed: 2002-05-14
Abstract: An electrostatic fluid accelerator having a multiplicity of closely spaced corona electrodes. The close spacing of such corona electrodes is obtainable because such corona electrodes are isolated from one another with exciting electrodes. Either the exciting electrode must be placed asymmetrically between adjacent corona electrodes or an accelerating electrode must be employed. The accelerating electrode can be either an attracting or a repelling electrode. Preferably, the voltage between the corona electrodes and the exciting electrodes is maintained between the corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage with a flexible top high-voltage power supply. Optionally, however, the voltage between the corona electrodes and the exciting electrodes can be varied, even outside the range between the corona onset voltage and the breakdown voltage, in to vary the flow of fluid. And, to achieve the greatest flow of fluid, multiple stages of the individual Electrostatic Fluid Accelerator are utilized with a collecting electrode between successive stages in order to preclude substantially all ions and other electrically charged particles from passing to the next stage, where they would tend to be repelled and thereby impair the movement of the fluid. Finally, constructing the exciting electrode in the form of a plate that extends downstream with respect to the desired direction of fluid flow also assures that more ions and, consequently, more fluid particles flow downstream.

Patent HK-1137215-A1 (HK)
Title: High capacity chiller compressor
Inventor: DOTY MARK C
IPC: F25B/
Filed: 2010-01-25
Abstract: A high efficiency, low maintenance single stage or multi-stage centrifugal compressor assembly for large cooling installations. The assembly is highly efficient by virtue of a variable frequency drive (VFD) that drives a permanent magnet motor and matches compressor speed with compressor load, a direct drive impeller that eliminates gearing losses, and magnetic bearings that reduce frictional losses. The back-emf produced by the motor provides an intermediate power source for the magnetic bearings in the event of a loss of electrical power. A cooling system provides direct cooling of the rotor with gas refrigerant, and cooling of the stator with liquid refrigerant. Modular construction allows the compressor to be retrofit with upgrades. An inlet guide vane system operates without need for oil lubrication. The use of light metal castings and elimination of gearing reduces the weight to one-third or less of comparably powered conventional units.
